Aug. 22, 2011 - PRLog -- The Jim Wells County Rodeo Arena roars to life with tantalizing tigers, enchanting elephants, and dramatic daredevils as the legendary Shrine Circus rolls into Alice for one thrilling day with two breathtaking performances.  Passionate performers from 15 countries will dazzle circus fans with new, amazing feats in the biggest and best Shrine Circus ever.  

The Al Amin Shrine Circus is the hottest ticket in town!  The Shriners are pleased to offer affordable family entertainment, and “BOGO” (buy one, get one) coupons are available at www.2011circus.com in publications and locations throughout the community.    Tickets are $14 (for children 12 and under), $26 for adults.  More details on show times and tickets are available at the website.  Tickets may be purchased at the venue one hour prior to show time.  Shows are at 4:30 and 7:30 pm.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of George Carden, in the circus.  Carden, a circus legend, has partnered with the Shriners for five decades to raise money for worthy causes.  Each year, Carden scours the globe to bring spectacular international talent to his Shrine Circus shows.  “I’ve watched generations of Texans grow up at the circus,” says Carden.  Michelle Audrey, is delighted to act as emcee on behalf of the Al Amin Shrine, “This is a show that is all about family fun and creating memories.  I have the best job in the world.”  Bo the Elephant performs amazing tricks with his bevy of pachyderm babes under the celebrated direction of trainer Larry Carden.  Weighing in at almost 6 tons, Bo is a big star!  Bruno Blaszac’s Bengal Tigers are roaring back to Texas with an adrenaline-fueled opening act.  Bruno is a can’t-miss!  We’ve added all new performances from across the globe…many have never been seen in North America before. Innovative acrobats, delightful daredevils, and, as always, those loveable Shrine clowns will be part of the Al Amin Shrine show.  

The Shrine Circus is the only interactive circus in the world! This year’s show includes the opportunity of a lifetime, as audience members are welcomed into the circus rings before, during intermission, and after the circus to meet the stars, ride ponies and elephants, and take photographs.  The Al Amin Shrine is throwing a Pre-Party for all who wish to hobnob with local celebrities, or for those who just love to clown around!
